Eli Kavon on The Damascus Blood Libel of 1840
I conclude teaching my course on "Milestones in Jewish History" for Pembroke Pines, Florida Brandeis. The last lecture in the series--an exploration of the implications of the arrest and torture of Jews in 19th-century Damascus on the charge of ritual murder--is set for tomorrow afternoon, Wednesday March 24 at the Florida Career College. A special thanks to Valerie and to the students who have attended the lectures.
